   9 2007-08-10  xstrtol         The STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR macro is removed.

  12 2007-08-04  human           The function human_options no longer reports an
  13                             error to standard error; that is now the
  14                             caller's responsibility.  It returns an
  15                             error code of type enum strtol_error
  16                             instead of the integer option value, and stores
  17                             the option value via a new int * argument.
  18             xstrtol         The first two arguments of STRTOL_FATAL_ERROR
  19                             are now an option name and option argument
  20                             instead of an option argument and a type string,
